I am not willing to personally sign off on this SRU, because I don't think it provably passes the "no regressions" threshold. And I don't think that the SRU team as a whole should let this into -proposed without the kind of thorough regression test case that I outlined in my previous mail to ubuntu-release (which will minimize the regressions, but still doesn't prove that there aren't any). I also agree with what Scott wrote on the bug report. This is not a recent behavior change in the Ubuntu kernel; it is the sort of thing that we should take the time to gather as much data as possible about, before pushing this change out in an SRU. Gathering data on top of the 14.10 release is a useful way to do this. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
